Acting Housewife today

well what a weekend it's been!
we've had glorious sunshine here, which means it's now warm enough to go out in a lovely vintage dress and cardie- yay!

yesterday, my honey and I were invited to my Uncle's house for dinner along with my Mummy and Nan. They have the most adorable 19th Century cottage which they have decorated to perfection, and it's all the more joyous since they had their baby boy, who's now a year and a half!
I haven't really revealed my 'vintage self' to anyone but a couple of friends and my Nan yet, but yesterday I took the leap. I dyed my hair a darker red yesterday morning (I have gone from dyed postbox red to a morello cherry), curled it and did my make-up to the nines. I then slipped myself into a cream A-line ruffled skirt, black vest, and salmon pink cardie- all finished off with my red ray-ban sunglasses, of course!
we had a wonderful day sitting in the courtyard with the wee man and having a full roast dinner, followed by apple pie (made by moi!) and eton mess. We even walked down to the river and let the dogs have a swim, which ended in me tearing my skirt- boo! (though it was old and tatty) and in order to do so my Aunty lended me some wellies, to which she took great delight in telling me I looked every bit the vintage country housewife in, and flung an apron on me to finish the look! :D



when I got back in the evening, my boy and I curled up on the sofa and watched some telly with a glass of vino :)

Today my boy has an interview with a very up-market department store, so when I awoke in glorious sunshine feeling very refreshed and lovely in bed, he was already showered and doing his hair. My hair also, looked lovely as my curls from yesterday have loosened and positioned themselves in a dissheveled 'bed-head' and cute look.
So my guy's gone for two hours (a very formal interview!) and I'm about to do my housewifery! Which of course involves cleaning the bedroom, living room and kitchen up, and baking him a great big cake in order to celebrate or comfort eat!

I've also been slipped a tenner by my lovely Nan so maybe I'll have to get on the old ebay and see what vintageness I can rustle up!

much love,
